Imaginary Friend?

Skylar has made a new friend. She told me the other day that she has a ghost friend, but she is a nice ghost. I asked if she was an angel and Skylar said, "No, just a ghost, but she is nice." Skylar proceeded to tell me all about her new friend. She is three years old, almost four. She has white hair, wears a white shirt, white pants and a white hat. She lives in the ground, somewhere in Las Vegas (she wants to show me where next time we go visit Sarah.) She is not sure how she made her home in the ground, but she knows she lives under the grass. I asked Skylar what her name was and she said she didn't know. I told her to ask her the next time she saw her. She asked, and her friends name is Sky. Skylar told me that Sky comes to sleep with her sometimes and the nights that she does, Skylar does not have nightmares, but when she doesn't come she sometimes has nightmares. Skylar also said that she comes at night most the time, but sometimes she comes during the day and then they like to talk and have races. Sky also likes to make new friends and read books. She has a ghost bike that she rides when Skylar rides her bike. She also likes to play with her dog named Annie.

I am not sure when or why Skylar has created this new friend (because the new baby maybe?), but she has been talking about her for a few days now. It has been fun to talk to her about it, because she has so many details. Has anyone else delt with imaginary friends?

1 month and swimming lessons.

It has been a while since I have had time to update, and I don't have a lot of time today so this will be kind of short. Here are some pictures of Holland. He is growing so fast. I can't believe it has already been five weeks. He is so much fun!

Also, the girls started swimming lessons together on Monday. They were a little timid at first, but they ended up loving it. Kortnie is at the perfect age to try it. She had absolutely no fear which is both a good thing and a bad thing. We just need her to learn pool safety real fast. It will be nice for them to have something to do that is set. It forces me to get out of the house.

After class

Kory is going to go on his annual backpacking trip with his brothers/nephews this weekend. They are going out by deseret peak and he should have a pretty good time. My sister is going to come stay with me so that I am not alone with all three kids. It should be an interesting weekend.

Girl Friends

I am grateful for girl friends. Wednesday night a few of my friends went shopping and out to dinner. We were celebrating Nicole's birthday and saying goodbye to Lindsay. It was nice to have a night out.

Thanks for the fun!
